Wow!! We couldn't have asked for a better place and location in Bangkok. The staff is very nice, polite and friendly especially the concierge. Personal check-in with Timo’s sister Rose is delightful, the bell boy and the security were very helpful, you can ask them anything. The Express Boat is a only 10 seconds walk from the metro station and brings you to the biggest shopping centre I have ever seen!! Like the Central World and MBK but also to the Jim Thompson House in only 10minutes!
Timo importet the „high living standards from Switzerland“ to Thailand. Every possible need has already been catered for! From the top furniture, to high tech equipment, tons of new movies, kitchen appliances, different types of bath towels, iPad, iPhone with internet access. The list goes on. There is a small gym (even with a sauna and changing room!) and an amazing infinity pool! I tried going to the gym everyday but the need for holiday laziness caught up on me and I ended up sunbathing near the pool instead :)
Rose explains everything and if you have any questions she does everything to help you and make you feel at home. My boyfriend enjoyed the preorder drinks and he could play some video games on the PlayStation3 when I decided to treat myself with a little massage, which by the way was just a footstep away. There are lovely bathrooms with free hotel toiletries, very convenient because I forgot my toothbrush. The Duplex is very clean and there is no dust, even after checking twice. The view from the balcony and both bedrooms is incredible!
Timo's apartment is DEFINITELY certainly one of the best places I have stayed in.
We spent 5 nights at the Duplex and after each day it was a joy to call this amazing flat our permanent home. I will come back again in April 2015!
